Expert Help for Damaged Hair
Split Ends Arrojo confirms what we all fear about split ends, “Other than a cut there is no out and out cure for split ends.” Bear in mind that a true end cut, where only the ends of the hair are sheared, can be done effectively while taking as little as a half an inch off your length. Consistency is key so to keep your ‘do healthy, you’ll need to cut off dead ends every 6 to 8 weeks. Those between cuts can combat the unruly, porous quality of split ends by using a good frizz fighting product, according to Arrojo, who recommends his signature Arrojo Defrizz Serum ($15 at arrojostudio.com). Arrojo also shared his two favorite hair-saving secrets, one cheap and one pricey. For those looking for a bargain, Arrojo recommends paring a favorite conditioner with a hair net minus water. “Whenever your hair is feeling dehydrated, deflated, dull, or just plain old frustratingly hard to style, pack your hair net with around 4 times as much product as you would for a regular application and put the hair net on wet or damp hair for 10 or 15 minutes. You can remove your hair net but resist any temptation to rinse the product out, so long as the conditioner is lightweight your hair will be hydrated, soft, smooth, shiny, and best of all, the texture will be easier to manage, shape, and control.” Those with extra dough to spend should head to a professional and book a deep conditioning salon treatment. “These protein and moisture feasts really do make an incredible difference to the health of your hair and you’ll be getting it applied professionally, meaning you can just sit back and relax while the professionals do their bit,” explains Arrojo. Product Picks Testing over 50 hair products we found that when it comes to giving good hair, you get what you pay for. We tested each product numerous times, following Arrojo’s advice that most hair treatments take a few applications to manage, style, and control. He says, “If the product you’re using brings back the look and feel of healthy, lusty, and shiny hair you know you’re on your way. And if your hair also becomes easier to style and control you’re definitely onto a winner.” Here’s our list of winners:
